"Girc us this dag
Life brought her nothing men call good
None of its brightest or II best
But sorrow broke her solitude,
And anguish sought her patient breast,
Yet through II all, her faith was strong,
And strongest when most dark her lot;
She knew that pence was hers ere long,
Who're sorrow dies nnd tears are not,
So, with Clasped hands and bended head,
Her lips could say
give Ms this day
our daily bread
She climbed the weary hill Of life,
with feet uuaided and unshod
lsaye by Gods gracc), and constant strife
Attended every stop she trod.
Yet, through the gloom these shadows made,
A light about her feet was cast,
Aud lifting up her voice she laid
Her load, where loads must come at last.
Hence, those poor lips so sCantly fed
In faith could say,
"Giye us this day
